Pixel RA!

Pixel earned her Rally Advanced title this weekend with two 98/100's and two Second places. Both times coming second to big sister Wicca. :)

I am so loving this happy, bouncy Pixel. I really think that she is starting to feel comfortable in the ring and I think that all this rally is going to make her performance in Open all that much better. I am just thrilled with how she did this weekend. She tried very hard, and I am so proud of her.

On to Excellent, but first we need to learn to back up in heel position. :)

Wicca

Wicca was retired from dog sports when she was 8 years old. Always reckless, and crazy fast; Her body could not keep up anymore. Instead she is enjoying life as just a bossy little dog who rules the house, the yard, and pretty much anything of value.

Wicca is wild, intense, fast, driven, and a little on the crazy side. I love it all. She is everything I wanted in a dog and I couldn't be happier with her. She is my first Cardigan Welsh Corgi, and is NINE years old this year. We compete in Agility, Obedience, and Rally. We also play with sheep, and scenthurdle racing. She is a great little dog with tremendous heart and loves to be working. Wicca is the dog I always dreamed of. Mushy, I know. But True.

Vito

Vito is 8 years old and is a complete marshmallow. He is a Border Collie/Corgi cross that I adopted as a pup. He is the laziest of my dogs and would be content to lay around all day. He plays around on the agility field but is not a serious agility at all. Vito is a great house dog though and loves to snuggle. Despite his lack of...er...energy, he is a great little dog that I adore!

He has a few random agility Q's.

Boone RN AADC AGDC

Boone is an 11 year old Pyrenean Shepherd.....I got him in November of '07 and it has been quite the experience so far! He is very different and had some pretty major temperament problems to overcome. He has improved so much from when I first got him but will always have a few extra little quirks. :) Boone is a very silly little guy- he has a great sense of humour and really enjoys being with me. He loves to play and loves to learn new things. He has loads of enthusiasm, now we just need the focus!

Boone is retired from dogsports. Instead he is enjoying life as just a dog. ;)

pixel

Pixel came from Cornerstone Cardigans in Florida. She had a very long flight to get all the way to cold Canada. :)

She is a smart cookie, and is very much the thinker in the family. She has been a fun dog to train and trial. She is a happy dog who likes to do just about anything- obedience sure, agility sure, play fetch sure! She has been a fantastic addition to my household and I just adore her. Thank you So Much to Rita for letting me have her! Here is a link to her Sire, and her Dam.
